SOPHIEI knew better than to go to that party. I would have been much happier curled up at home eating Halloween candy by myself, but I had Mom's voice in my head telling me to make an effort now that I was in college, to put myself out there and socialize. If I'd stayed home, I wouldn't have met him. SILVANMen have always committed atrocities chasing after their desires. The men in my family have it down to an art form. Personally, I've never experienced a desire that ran so deep it poisoned my soul. Until the night I laid eyes on her. It's really too bad she didn't feel the same way. It could have been a fairy tale. I guess our story was meant to be something a little more twisted. Oh well. I desire Sophie Bradwell, and I don't care how many terrible things I have to do to get her... and keep her. Surrender was previously released as Sophie's Surrender by the same authors.
